FIRSTCLASSALLTHWAY -

Gunned to the lead in :26 45, yielded, brushed back to the lead at the half, took on pressure from the winner going 1:22 2/5 to the three quarters, excusably weakened

STATE TREASURER -

Classy 6yo has had several big moments in his career and added to his legacy with this huge performance, floated out leaving, declined a tuck and followed cover, lost cover approaching the half, brushed to the lead at the 5/8's, powered to the three quarters in 1:19 4/5 and won clear in 1:47, a world record for older pacing horses
